PLEASE READ ENTIRE SWAP DESCRIPTION

This is a USA swap only. Feel free to host your own tinternational one.

ALSO - there are a couple of swappers that sometimes join my swap that are from Canada, but have a USA address too....PLEASE CHECK YOUR PARTNERS PROFILE

Your child will have 1 partner and send one wrapped gift. A gift must cost minimum $1, not including postage. It can be store-bought or handmade. Your gift must be wrapped. Sender's choice, but age and gender appropriate. Do not send any food. Your partner's child may wait until December to open the gift. NOTE for the months of November and December food is allowed.

REQUIREMENT add a tag with your child's name and YOUR swap-bot ID/month in case your partner's child keeps it wrapped until December and wants to contact you then.

NEW RULE, SIGH You must have something on your profile about your child(ren). If you DO NOT then you will be removed from the swap. (Someone tried to join and she admitted that she was just trying to get stuff for herself...really!?! In who's world is that OK?!?) And almost every month I have someone message me with "my partner has nothing on their profile about their kids and is not answering my messages."

No trash, no junk, no dirty/damaged items. You must send only new at least $1-valued wrapped item. Please try and send a gift that will actually fit into a stocking.

As long as it meets the swap requirements then please rate a 5, even if it's something you can't use.

Your child can open their gift once they've received it or can pop the wrapped gift in their Christmas Stocking till December. It's up to you! But please do rate your partner once you've received it, even if you are going to keep it wrapped till Christmas.

Newbies welcomed, with a well filled out profile (I DO CHECK AND WILL BAN). No recent/unexplained low ratings and you must check into swap-bot within 3 days of partners being assigned. PLEASE check out my profile page and read the "About Swaps I Host" section for an in-depth explaination of my swap rules.

Also ~ I live in "Boonyville" Michigan and sometimes our internet connection isn't very good. This is especially true when it rains & in the winter months. I have been told that swap hosts have 7 days after the sign up date to assign partners. So please be patient, partners will get assigned and if needed I will extend the send date.

If you know of a bad swapper signed up for this swap, I appreciate being informed, but please DO NOT post to the comment section! Send me a PM and I will deal with it that way.

I cannot angel this swap at this time. But then who would be low enough to flake on a child?

I also have an adult version of this swap

I would like to remind everyone that though this is not a profile based swap to please check your partners profile. PLEASE DO NOT send something that is on their dislikes.

Also....please make sure that the stocking stuffers you send are small enough to fit into a stocking. Remember....bigger isn't always better and good things come in small packages!

Do you know if there is a men's only type swap like this. I feel a little bad that my husband is getting left out, I mean, technically he could get his own sb account but he works so much that he'd just neglect it. If there isn't a masculine one, do you think there would be enough interest in one? I wouldn't mind hosting, with your permission, since I know there are a few other swap hosts who do stocking stuffers.

I haven't seen one for men only. There are a couple guy's who sometime join the adult version that I have.

Is it possible to sign up twice for this. I have 2 kids who are both very interested...

institches 08/24/2016 #

@Germanbaby77 - no, there's no way for you to sign up 2 times. You're going to have to pick 1 child to receive. I remember reading someones profile that has more than one child. She has a different child receive each month (January - Suzie; Febuary - Johnny; March-Bobby, then start again with Suzie in April and on through the year)

Or maybe there is some willing to do private swaps with you. You can ask in the comment section

@Baseballmom87 = @jdmmomma = @mommy41207 = @jaredsmommy

I told the host before she assigned partners, but she deleted the comment and blocked me, and didn't remove the bad swapper from the swap. I'd avoid any of @institches 's swaps from now on.
